And to be clear, DHH was deliberately aligning himself with Tommy Robinson - a British street agitator who rose to prominence after being kicked out of an avowedly fascist party because of his insistence on prioritising violence over electoral politics (the party's "political soldier" leadership at the time sought to give equal weight to both).

Using the term "fascist" in that context isn't about cancelling someone, or targetting them unfairly - it's an accurate description of the specific ideology that they're advocating.
